• APM 2.0.0
  New drivers:
  - StatsD
  - Socket
  
  Added:
  - Per-driver option 'apm._store_silenced_events that lets you toggle whether to store silenced (@-ed) errors (thanks Mathieu Kooiman (@mathieuk))
  - apm.*_exception_mode configuration to control exception collection
  - Auto creation of SQLite and MariaDB/MySQL schemas
  - Stats:
  - User and System CPU time
  - Memory Peak Usage
  - HTTP response code
  - 'application_id' field to categorize the issues per application/server/environment/...
  - Support for compilation on Ubuntu (thanks Olivier Garcia (@0livier))
  
  Changed:
  - Deep refactoring:
  - New DB schema
  - No more native functions, retrieval of data is directly made in PHP
  - SQLite drivder attempts to create the directory structure by himself
  - Renamed 'slow request' to 'stats'
  - Connect to MySQL once and reconnect if needed
  - Small UI improvements
  - Avoiding int / uint conversion
  - MariaDB/MySQL driver activated by default
  
  Fixed:
  - Parse error test failing on PHP 5.4
  - Possible segfault with APM_DEBUG used outside RINIT/RSHUTDOWN phases
  - Missing disconnect from SQLite DB if changed with ini_set()
  - Too few arguments to sprintf() with MariaDB/MySQL backend
  - Possible segfault with PHP 5.5
  - Segmentation fault with "zend_mm_heap corrupted" message.
  - Missing zval reference incrementing
  - Out of memory error in backtrace generation
  - Removed hard-coded limit of 64kB json data
  - Do not activate silence handler if APM is not enabled
  - Some compiler warnings
  - Incorrect status propagation for PHP_RSHUTDOWN_FUNCTION
  - Several memory leaks
  
  Removed:
  - Deffered processing (can't be easily implemented in a generic and driver
  agnostic way. Depending on the drivers, some deffered processing will
  happen inside them.)
  - Reference SQL files, see source code for that ;-)
